Description
This dataset is a market dataset, representing the consumption market of the region; the dataset includes the transport of the product from the gate to the consumer end, and the transport service is calculated according to the transport situation of this product in this region. The product represented by this dataset is a porcelain-column SF6 circuit breaker, which is an SF6 circuit breaker using a porcelain column as the insulating medium between the live part and the earthed part, with a single-unit weight of about 1656.6 kg and an average nominal voltage of 127.5 kV, mainly made from a casing (steel, stainless steel, plastic, etc.) and purchased contacts, operating mechanisms and auxiliary components, etc., through processes such as casing processing, assembly and testing. The key upstream raw materials of this product are components such as steel, stainless steel, plastic, contacts, operating mechanisms and auxiliary components, and downstream it is mainly applied in the control and protection of power systems and high- and extra-high-voltage power systems, outdoor substations, and transmission networks. In terms of system boundary, the packaging of the product and the transport, use, scrapping, recycling and final disposal after leaving the factory, as well as infrastructure such as the manufacture of production equipment and the construction of plant buildings, are not included within the dataset boundary. In terms of data sources and data processing, the data inventory is formed by merging data from multiple sources.
Activity Description
The system boundary covers the porcelain-column SF6 circuit breaker from cradle to gate, starting with raw-material inputs and ending when the finished porcelain-column SF6 circuit breaker leaves the factory. The main stages, in sequence, are enclosure processing using steel, stainless steel, plastics, and other materials; assembly of contacts, the operating mechanism, auxiliary components, and other parts; and testing.
Process Description
Circuit breaker refers to a mechanical switching appliance that can connect, carry and break current under normal circuit conditions, and can also connect, carry and break current under specified abnormal circuits (such as short circuits) for a certain period of time. It is mainly divided into air circuit breakers, vacuum circuit breakers, SF6 circuit breakers and plastic case circuit breakers. Porcelain pillar type SF6 circuit breaker is a type of SF6 circuit breaker. It uses porcelain pillars as the insulating medium between the live part and the grounded part. It is mainly composed of shell, contacts, operating mechanism and auxiliary components. It has overload and short-circuit protection and other properties. It is in the form of porcelain pillar switchgear. It is widely used in the control and protection of high- and extra-high-voltage power systems, outdoor substations, and transmission networks. It is often used in outdoor occasions because of its good insulation performance and weather resistance.

Technology comment
The production of porcelain column SF6 circuit breakers mainly includes shell processing, assembly and testing. The casing (steel, stainless steel, plastic, etc.) is cleaned and anti-rust treated after cutting, drilling, bending, etc., and then assembled with purchased contacts, operating mechanisms, auxiliary components and other parts. After passing a series of tests such as temperature resistance, voltage resistance, insulation resistance and short-circuit current breaking, the finished porcelain column SF6 circuit breaker is obtained.
